Mathis v. Kerr

Summary

The court held that the plaintiffs, who delivered Amazon packages, were transportation workers exempt from arbitration under the federal arbitration statute. It also held that Oklahoma's workers' compensation retaliation statute assigns exclusive jurisdiction and exclusive remedies to the district courts, thereby precluding arbitration of those retaliation claims. The court reversed the trial court, vacated the intermediate appellate decision, and remanded for further proceedings concerning the remaining claims.
